notice – Thousands of men leaving for unknown destinations daily, the Camps are almost deserted & Cairo is feeling the pinch – I am certain – we that is camps at Zeitoun – Helmieh expect to get marching orders any minute.

Had another dose of Typhus vacceine today – arm very sore. Couldn't get to church today.

3rd Monday

Very cold last night – stiff breeze blowing – All the Camp on various fatigues – I happened to be without a party, so made myself scarce all day. Leave still stopped, went to a picture show at Zeitouin at night. Had a check roll during the day.
